Payback is a Bitch (HIATUS)

Chapter 8

Hindi pa din ako pinapansin ni Toby hanggang ngayon. Bahala siya sa buhay niya. I just don't want him to get in trouble just in case napuruhan niya si Marion. He's such a brat I am not so talking to him.

"Kanina pa ako kinukulit ng alaga mo na lumabas ng bahay Brielle. Magtatatlong araw na niya akong pinipeste, please lang mag usap na kayo." Kung makapagsabi naman tong kuya ko parang ako yung may kasalanan ng paghihirap niya.

"I will talk to him if he stops being a brat. Get out of my room, Van, you're annoying me." Irritado kong sinabi sa kanya.
"Get a life Brielle. You're so boring." Pagkasabi niya yun ay lumabas na siya at binalibag pa ang pituan ko..

"I don't care if I'm boring, Van the Great." I muttered under my breath.

"Brielle?" I heard Kathy'voice outside my room. "I'm here Kathy." Siya na muna ang pinapapasok ko sa opisina ngayon dahil ayokong makakita ng nakakastress na mga tao.

"Brielle, you have something to sign sa office. It's about the renewal of contract ng mga employees na gusto pa ding manatili sa kompanya." Alam kong gustong gusto na nilang malaman ang nangyari three days ago.

"Kathy, will you please bring the papers here? I really can't go to that forsaken office right now." Inaasahan ko ng papagalitan niya ako dahil sa katamaran ko but I know she knows better when I'm not really capable.

"You know that you can talk to me when you need someone to talk to right?" She said with pure concern.
"I know that Kath and we'll talk later after ko maligo. Call the girls para minsanan na." She hugged me so tight pero binitawan din niya ako agad.

"Maligo ka na Brielle. You smell awful." Sabay takbo palabas sa pintuan.
"I'm not! Grabe naman!" I shouted and throw a pillow towards the door.

"Brielle! Get out of the washroom and let's talk!" I heard Toby shouting in my room. Wow, really?

"Get out of my room, brat!" I shouted back. Nakakastress talaga.

"I'm not the brat here! Just get out and we'll talk!" He seemed frustrated. Fine.

"Get out of my room! Magbibihis muna ako tapos tayo mag uusap!" Ano, basta basta na lang ako lalabas para makapag usap kami? I'm naked for pete's sake!

"Ok." He said. Brat.

"Brielle! Open the door!" Seriously?!
"It's not locked! Geez guys! Get a grip, all of you!" I heard Vian said and everyone ran like an idiot inside my room.

"So what's the deal?" I asked them.
"I'm sorry, okay?! Just please bati na tayo so that we can go outside and have some fun! It's so boring here!" Sunod sunod na sabi ni Toby.

"Brat." "Really?" "Unbelievable!" Sabay sabay na sabi ng tatlong babaeng nasa harapan ko.

"Tobs, don't do that again okay? You almost killed him because of me and I don't want you to be miserable because I am miserable. Okay bati na tayo." I told him and the kid looks very happy. So adorable. Ugh, he's hugging me.
"Uh, Tobs, no hugging please?" I said and he let go.
"It's just a hug, B." He said.

"Stop before you get cheesier, the both of you." Vian said.

"So, Tabby, what is the deal why the hell you don't like to go to your office?" Viol asked me. I know they already know the answer but I'm just glad they're asking.

"I told Marion that I lost my child because of him. It's one of those spur of the moment in my life." I don't know exactly what I am feeling right now.

"You know what, why dont you just tell him everything?" Kathy told me.
"Is that a suggestion or command? Either way, it's hard, Kath, to bring up the past with the person you loathe the most. It's not like sharing your favorite movie with your bestfriends." I told them. It will break my heart to pieces and I will break down in front of that man. That's the last thing I want to do in my life.
